Sporting issue ultimatum to Nottingham Forest over Jota Silva | OneFootball

Sporting has reportedly informed Nottingham Forest that, at this time, they only intend to negotiate Jota Silva if it is for a loan

The saga between Sporting and Nottingham Forest for Jota Silva seems to have no end in sight. At this point, the Sporting board has even issued an ultimatum to the Premier League club, assuring that the deal will only happen if it is for a loan.

According to information revealed by the newspaper O Jogo, the green and white structure has even given up on the possibility of signing the Portuguese international permanently, therefore, only a loan will be a viable option to bring the winger to Alvalade.

One of the reasons that motivated this decision by Sporting is the value demanded by Nottingham: between 6 and 7 million euros. The player is also convinced to return to Portugal and even lower his salary, so this should not be a problem.

Moreover, the same source reveals that Nuno Espírito Santo - who may even be leaving the technical command of the tricky tees -, has even advised Jota Silva to move to Alvalade in this transfer market, which would make the player reunite with Rui Borges.

Jota Silva – valued at 15 million euros – participated in 37 matches for Nottingham Forest last season: 31 in the Premier League, five in the FA Cup, and one in the English League Cup. Rarely a starting option in England, the winger scored four goals and made two assists. The player was a used substitute in the first round of this season's Premier League.
